Liverpool Win Five Goal Thriller
How many times have we said “Liverpool Win Five Goal Thriller” in recent years? Just to confirm, the score was Leicester 2, Liverpool 3. Or should that read Mr Hyde 2, Dr Jekyll 3. Make no mistake, this was another Jekyll and Hyde performance from the Reds. Fabulous football on so many occasions during the […]
Whats In Reserve
Going to first team matches enables fans to see at first hand the talent available to Jurgen Klopp. But beneath the first XI, whats in reserve? Are there any budding Sadio Mane’s or Adam Lallana’s? Do we have any up and coming centre backs capable of challenging current incumbents, Matip, Klavan and Lovren? Liverpool 4, […]
Groundhog Day Yet Again
We were only commenting on a Groundhog Day a few days ago after our 1-1 draw with Burnley. Would we learn from the mistakes from the Burnley game….the Sevilla game…..etc….etc? Well, we didn’t have long to find out the answer to that did we. You will know by now that the answer is, no we […]

Norwich 2, Liverpool 3 – A Real Nail Biter
Firstly, let me begin by saying that as our magnificent run has developed and progressed, our expectations have changed dramatically. The goal posts have well and truly been changed.

West Ham 1 Liverpool 2 – The Reds Edge Closer

Liverpool March On In March
After the victory against Swansea we faced some very testing away fixtures in March – three in succession as it happens. The first one at Southampton had “difficult”and “banana skin” stamped right through it, but Liverpool more than acquitted themselves when they came away with a relatively comfortable 3-0 victory. I say “relatively” as Southampton […]
